EDINBURe, July Ex-senator Frye and
wife were quartered in the Royal Hotel here
two days before the Blaine party arrived. 1t
was evident THAT there was lack Of warmth
aud affinity in the Maine corterie. Nothing
more than an exchange Of most ordinary
civilities had occurred between the Blaines
and Fryes. Senator Frye met Mr.. Blaine
Saturday as he was stepping into a carriage.
and paused few moments 10 converse with
him, but no intimacy had subsisted between
the families. They neither visited one an
other at their rooms. nor went sightseeing
together. and Senator Frye spent most Of his
time down stairs. He attended none Of the
Carnegie ceremonies. He was cheerful with
both Mr.. Blaine and Senator Hale when no
met them, which was rarely. Last night,
however, Mrs. Blaine and Mrs. Hale and Sem
at0r Frye metin the rOtunda as they were re-
turning 10 their apartments from the coffee
room, and bore him of with them up stairs.
Tha three families Gathered in one Of Mr..
Blaine's parloTs, and there remained the en-
tire evening.
LONDON, July f2.--The speech Of Balfour
last night in the House OF Commons on the
Irish land bill was throughout both weak
and apologetic 1t left the impression that
ne was ready 70 accept any amendment, pro-
vided 1t came in the form Of . new bill, and
its acceptance was not calculated to give
shock TO the country, nor to Cause any
further demoralization of Conservatives.
The more the result Of the Spdlding cleo
becomes known the more apparent becomes
the genulnenerS OF reaction In favor OF Glad
stone. Conservative election agents attri-
butte the recent revenues chiefly TO the Inn
preston that the Irish members Of Parlia-
ment are participating In the eOntests, dwell
ing upon the horrors of eyictiOns and the
threatened Increase Of suferings Of the
people under the coercion act then there
are reports also that the government Is be-
ing influenced in the direction Of modifca-
tion Of the land bill. A number Of Tory
members OF Parliament are urging the
abandonment Of the bankruptcy and pur-
chase clauses OF the bill, and trying TO make
OF II short measure, cOnceding judicial
revision OF rents, and 10 include lease holders
clauses. The bill In this form, II Is claimed,
would be. acceptable to the opposition, and
be sure Of a speedy passage.
Parnellite members Of Parliament are try
Ing 10 induce Gladstone to visit Ireland dur
ing the early operation OF the coercion act

Mr.. Dillon resumed the debate on the land
bill In the Commons tonight. He said he
reJeete d the measure with contempt as utter
" Inadequate 10 meeting the needs Of the
Irish tenantry. He rebutted Chamberlain's
assertion that the past efforts of English
statesmen to amellorate condition Of the peo-
pie had invariably met with e0ntumely from
the Parnellites and declared whatever adj
yaatages the English statesmen had ever
offered had been eagerly seized. Yesterday
evenings debate, he said, disclosed the fact
sirous OF securing important amendments 10
the bill. Would the Chamberlain set he
asked, compel the government TO introduce
the amendments suggested, attacking the
clauses Of the bill seriatim. Mr.. Dillon de-
clared the first, dealing with the case Of the
lease helders, was the only one that promised
to be beneficial in its operation. the other
clauses would make eviction easy, destroy
the confidence Of the tenantry in the land
court and place in the landlords hands the
new and terrible irresistible engine Of evic-
ton. L. w. Russell, Liberal member k.y
Tyrone, said ii was desired Of the tenant
farmers Of Ulster to see fair and deter
mined effort was made to settle the questions
raised by the bill This measure would not
satisfy them. He objected TO the tenant be-
ing comoelled TO go into court against his
will. The bill was a delusi0n as regards
evictions, closing one door upon the power
Of the landlord to eyiet only to open another.

judges power to revise judicial rents and
they claim these alterations will modify the
opposition Of the Parnellite members to the
measure.
